“We are celebrating with the whole team and the people of the club. There is great happiness for everyone, after a long time it is right to celebrate in the best possible way”: as we read on planetserieb.it, interviewed by DAZN, he spoke thus Cesc Fabregas, one of the major protagonists in Como’s recent history, who achieved promotion to Serie A 21 years after the last time. First as a player, then as a coach, the Catalan contributed to this significant result.
On which he then added: “The Primavera experience was very important for me, it was my first as a coach and it made me understand several things, especially how to talk to the players to help them believe in their potential and create the mentality to win all the games. I tried to do the same thing with the first team, even if I arrived too quickly and I didn’t expect it. I had an extra year on my contract to continue playing but I’m happy to have made this decision Who inspires me? I don’t look to anyone. I have clear ideas: for me, I have to work, I’m fair to everyone or at least I try to bring a certain winning mentality. We can all talk about tactics, it’s simple, but creating a strong mentality is the most important thing. There were stronger teams than us as a squad, in 6 months we achieved a feat and we are very happy.”
And he adds: “The simplest thing was finding guys I played with last year. Thanks to this I made the decision to move forward with this project, I knew it was a family and that I could entrust my life to players like Gabrielloni. The most difficult thing? It was my first experience, we had ups and downs, with always different teams to face. We, Parma and Catanzaro always tried to offer football, not to play man against man like many in Serie B do The team defended low before, with the 3-5-2, but they were smart to change and I enjoyed the experience a lot.”
He then concludes: “I had never followed Serie B, there are physically and technically strong players and I am happy now to take a step forward and raise the level, play against very strong players and coaches. Today we celebrate, from tomorrow we will start preparing the new season by working hard. Vardy certainly won’t come, it’s not a goal. We have to make the team with the aim of saving ourselves, then if we do more it would be perfect , who believes in it, as we have done this year. From November 25th to today we have been the best in Serie B.”
